🌿 About Dhokra Art:
Dhokra (also spelled Dokra) is one of the oldest known forms of metal casting, with roots tracing back over 4,000 years. Practiced in tribal regions such as Bastar (Chhattisgarh), Odisha, West Bengal, and Jharkhand, this art form uses the lost wax casting method. Unlike mass-produced items, no molds or factories are used—each item is uniquely handmade using natural materials and age-old techniques passed down through generations.
By purchasing Dhokra items, you're directly supporting rural artisans, preserving heritage, and owning a piece of history made with skill and soul.
